Oh man I am so excited you played this! I was one of the few beta testers for this game and I help mod the discord for Seaglass. Thank you so much for trying out the game! I love all of your videos! They definitely help get through the work day.
@ChaosInColour be warned. When I fought Greta, her Heracross Terrastilized and that isn't supposed to happen. Don't know if the other Brains are like that too
It's not easy to find an emerald rom hacks that isn't just the same game "but harder" So finding one, let alone this "remastered" de-mastered game, is quite the gem.
as someone who doesn't really like the artstyle of gen 1/2, i have to admit, this has a very very charming artstyle and the battle scenes are especially super nice looking
13:27 im not sure how to explain it but that torkoal has the most gen 2 sprite energy ever. It made me look up if the pokemon was actually introduced in gen 2 or 3
There are many emerald with a twist hacks out there. Things I appreciate: Hard Mode, Soft Level Caps, TMs purchaseable for additional uses, DexNav, the best Pokedex I have seen, HMs being usable without taking a moveslot, new type combos, and stat buffs Not the best romhack I've played, but it had a lot of the QoL improvements that make Radical Red fun
Can we get hidden abilitiy ? Is there a way to change ability or is it random ? Also the in game cheat mons isn't really cool lmao. Spheal, Aipom, Applin, Tinkatink.
I mean, two things against that, one, some rulesets count static encounters as separate and this could be considered a static encounter, also, Nuzlocks are at their core a way to help people seeking challenge still find fun in the more simple pokemon series so if thats what he wanted to do to have fun with it then thats his choice
Small detail but you can definitely catch as many pokemon as you want to unlock items like the one from professor elm, you just have to box them or immediately release them and can only use your real encounters lol
@@BorisTheGoose92 I don’t know the history exactly so you may be right but I don’t even think a situation like this would apply in any of the original creator of nuzlocke’s runs. They were on vanilla games and more casual compared to the super hardcore nuzlockes we do now haha so I would actually argue that not allowing yourself to do it would be adding your own stipulation like a hardcore+ nuzlocke lol. Doesn’t really matter at the end of the day but I don’t see why anyone would be against it or not do it if they wanted the item haha, same way if your encounters happened to not give you any Pokemon that learn a necessary hm you obviously don’t have to reset, you can catch an hm slave to progress and just not be allowed to use it in battle. Infinite fusion had a quest to restore the lighthouse by catching like 5 Voltorb and putting them at the top. The quest rewards were godlike, light ball for Pikachu fusions, volt switch tm and something else. I don’t see catching the voltorb and placing them in the lighthouse as making my own rule or anything I just see it as doing what very clearly makes sense to do haha
This is really a beautiful game and I'm very grateful somebody has made something like this. I have immediately downloaded it and nudged all my friends who enjoy the rom hacks to promote and play this is much as they can
@@saffron97 no they don't, at least not in the most well known-challenges. Example: in FRLG the Eevee is in the same city as the game corner, you can only get one of them
Responding to title: It really is, and thank you for sharing! Been playing Seaglass since V1.0 release and it really is the best for multiple reasons :)
I’m currently playing through it and I’m enjoying it so far. The graphics and features are so good. This gives me the vibe of what Emerald would look like if it was on the GBC
Love how you make every romhack you play seem like the best thing ever ❤ but this one.. omg I need to play it! The graphics look so good!! Love the content zwiggo, keep up the great work man 😊❤
Using gen 2 sprites in a gen 3 rom hack is so smart, i wish i thought of it, it lets you get the beutiful gen 2 arstyle but also gives you the flexability to change the colors and gives your way more space and ram to work with
I've always loved more the Pokémon Yellow sprites and Gen 2 sprites in general than the new ones, maybe it's nostalgia or whatever but I really go back to Pokémon Yellow a lot only for the sprites
I am super enamored by this! Im currently doing an Emerald Extreme Randomizer Nuzlocke but once I'm done, I'm gonna try this one out for sure! I love he old time graphics, reminds me of when I got Yellow back in '99 lol
You know, without the white lines we wouldn't have even half the definition in the wonderful sprite work in this rom. It helps make everything really pop and I love it!
Just played it yesterday and it's really fun to play, normally I stop playing gba roms because i got tired of playing the same storyline and region but this is really different!
Loved Seaglass Emerald. It's a quite simple hack, yet great one and straight up fun game. Giving us DexNav is already insta 10/10 addition and my Blaziken getting Trop Kick for coverage + boost from Athletic.
I was skeptical of using gen II assets for a gen III game. I actually really love gen III for it's unique style, but I was surprised by how good this looks. It benefits well from graphics and features introduced in gen III, and it compliments well while being true to the gen II style. Gonna put this on my list to try later
I was listening to/watching your pokemon uranium video and realized there are a few fakemon in that game that are currently in pokengine's borovia region
Saw two things in my playthrough that you didn't mention and/or notice. 2nd floor of Devon Corp sells Z crystals and Slateport there is a teleport to pacifidlog town for early game
I think the Blue Orb for Groudon/Red Orb for Kyogre is correct- while it doesnt match their skin color, Groudon's energy is blue while Kyogre's energy is red. Look at them on the Ruby/Sapphire title screens.

I've been playing this and I gotta say, THIS ROM IS PERFECT POKEMON! Oh my gosh. It's everything good about Pokemon. I know I'm over reacting but it's absolutely a fantastic rom
I want more room hacks in these graphics.
Yeah I’m personally excited for “Pokémon kitchen”
@@bbrookingz2087 yeah me too. But Pokemon Bathroom looks promising.
Yessir
I'd love my room decorated like this, just got to learn how to hack my room
@@Moopadoopies when you figure it out make a youtube tutorial
I wish roms had an option for the music to be at 1/2 - 1/4 speed so we could enjoy it while grinding levels
That's a pretty great idea honestly I don't know why I never thought of that and why nobody has implemented it in a romhack
@AGuyCalledStu Hopefully more creators see/hear about this so we can potentially see it in future roms.
Could maybe mute the GBA emulator and just play your favourite Pokemon mix on UA-cam?
@@OmmNomNomNomTom it's not the same
@@AGuyCalledStu because playing at higher speeds is a thing for emulators and changing the music speed is a thing for the roms themselves maybe?
If you access the PC in your room there's actually a shiny charm! From the very beginning.
not to mention getting exp share in the begining too which makes grinding levels soo much easier!
Gen 2 sprites just makes everything look so good. Treecko line, Blaziken and Gliscor Sprite look so cool.
the only good thing about gen 2 are the sprites
@@talfriedman1265cope
@@talfriedman1265 nah as flawed as they are in many aspects gen 2 games are enjoyable
I think it's fine, I'm just not crazy about graphics or texture swaps, I prefer content over looks, still cool, just not my thing.
@@aggerktmI agree, it's a little unfair to judge stuff from the Gameboy Era by modern standards.

just got to the battle frontier! the style and the game itself was so fun, loved being surprised by the new typings haha

This is amazing man!!
Man how to get Alakazam, Dusknoir and other Pokemon that need to be traded to evolve?
@@villamormylene3727 item called Linking Cord. Give to by Lanette, found is weather institute and bought in Sootopolis
The evil teams use the wrong orbs because the old man most likely gave them the wrong orb because he knew that the legend would not obey them
Tbf I don't think Maxie or Archie knew what color Groudon and Kyorge were before walking them up
Maybe the one associated with the sea is red
Ah, yes, the SEA pokemon is RED and the LAND pokemon is BLUE
Pokemon BlueSkies & RedCoral
@@mertensiam3384tbh land should be green
@@Htiy the magma pokemon that lives in a volcano is surely blue.
Such a cool concept for gen 3! Love the sprites and the overall graphics! Need to play this next 🙌🏼🤩
There's a gen 2 rom hack were you play as lances son and your starter is larvatar.....can't remember that name but it's awesome
Pokémon Prism. That is an amazing rom hack.
Pokémon Prism which is the sequel to Pokémon Brown (gen I romhack)
I recently finished Prism, it's a great time!
Is Pokémon Prism that ROM hack that lets you basically catch a fakemon that's themed around the glitches in those gens?
Gen 2 sprites are basically: COMFY MODE ACTIVATED!
Omg just a few minutes in I want the creator of this hack to make their own game because this art is beautiful!
It's not easy to find an emerald rom hacks that isn't just the same game "but harder"
So finding one, let alone this "remastered" de-mastered game, is quite the gem.
Bro I saw this rom yesterday and downloaded it with a friend to play at school, its nice to see you playing it as well!!
Where did you download it from and is it for mobile or desktop??

The people who created this rom hack are the definition of passion
4:40 "the most useless thing ever - castform" My poor heart 💔 you are right but I love the fluffy cloud
13:11 Slugma looks like he’s been through the ringer
Looks wonderful! Thank you for sharing. Also my favourite sprite is probably dusclops :) it looks so mindless and haunting.
On my second play through! It’s great, I recommend to future players to check out the special cheats, you can start with some pretty cool Pokémon!
Can we get hidden abilitiy ? Is there a way to change ability or is it random ?
Also the in game cheat mons isn't really cool lmao.
Spheal, Aipom, Applin, Tinkatink.
@@nether_prince3021 i mean, you could have no cheats lol, child iq take u got
What emulator do you use?
Surely the wishing well counts as one encounter? Ya cant just go back in a hardcore nuzlocke

Technically no, but it's your nuzlocke if you want that rule then go for it. Seems like the up votes agree with you, so likely a few people do this.

5:47 But you've already caught a Castform in Rustboro
There's wishing well in Rustboro where you can throw in a Wishing Star item and receive a random Pokémon, kind of a gacha mechanic
@@Calyylac Thd point is that since this is a Hardcore Nuzlocke, he shouldn't have 2 pokemon from the same location (Rustboro)
Scripted or static encounters tend to void that rule. Fossils are considered static encounters.
@@saffron97 yes but the location will be Rustboro still, right?
@@saffron97 no they don't, at least not in the most well known-challenges.
Example: in FRLG the Eevee is in the same city as the game corner, you can only get one of them
I am not joking when I say that I have literally been having dreams of something like this, a gen 3 demake to gen 2 graphics, WOW.
I've been playing it with a Sandstorm team and I absolutely love it
sceptile is grass dragon, you should have picked it, its just a realy nice change

This was inevitable but this is a phenomenal hack
I've been waiting for a big pokemon youtuber to cover this rom hack, nice
I have this all downloaded and ready to go but have been putting off starting it. It looks so great though, good reminder in my YT feed
What emulator do you use?
@@gazpearson On my phone I use My Boy! Lite, on a laptop used for retrogames and romhacks I'm using good old Visual Boy Advance
the batyle backgrounds are stunning!
I've always loved more the Pokémon Yellow sprites and Gen 2 sprites in general than the new ones, maybe it's nostalgia or whatever but I really go back to Pokémon Yellow a lot only for the sprites
Ok, Scuba safari is the coolest thing i've ever heard of in a pokemon game
Gen 2 sprites have a unique charm that sets them apart from other generations. The Treecko line, Blaziken, and Gliscor are prime examples of this
This looks amazing. This is what I need from Gen III. Gen II gtaphics were all I needed until Lets Go Eevee 💀
…. Why did Archie have a Breloom tho 🥴
I am super enamored by this! Im currently doing an Emerald Extreme Randomizer Nuzlocke but once I'm done, I'm gonna try this one out for sure! I love he old time graphics, reminds me of when I got Yellow back in '99 lol
I love this game, I'm working on completing the pokedex for it. Game is BUENO
dude my jaw was literally in the floor looking at this, it's beautiful!!!
Reminds me of another GBC hack, Pokemon Black and White 3. Great visuals on this one as well
I wanted the music to change to GBC soundfont as well
11:04 there's weed!? they smoke weed!?

I played this the day it came out glad you got to play it too, its a very beautiful game!

i disagree I hate the white lines
Absolutely gorgeous art style 🥳
Every time you said Flaafy during the Watson fight i kept hearing fluffy XD
Personally id love to see a Nintendo DS version of Emrald... or at least a rom
Just played it yesterday and it's really fun to play, normally I stop playing gba roms because i got tired of playing the same storyline and region but this is really different!
Latios and Banette are tied for my favorite new sprites. They both look fantastic and have great new poses!
All old Pokemon games should be remade into HD2D!
Masquerain gave me PTSD in Pokewilds
zwiggo,brawly is learning to be a ninja
Did not expect a Lamine Yamal shoutout in a pokemon rom hack video🤣🤣
I was taking a break from pokémon games but I think I'm gonna play this one, nuzlocke like you did, it seems so much fun and the art is crazy good
Love the little emote they do after they get a kill
you have chose your starter well.
Yessir
All hail!
I struggle with it lol feel like I made the wrong choice half the playthrough
Gen 2 was the best vibe. It was just a neat rural region
Random pokemon creating and add new types to a pokemon rom hack would be amazingly Good
holy shit this looks so good, very glad to have discovered this
Out of all of this, the best thing I learned is that I am not the only one that loves naming their Whismur line Boombox
Loved Seaglass Emerald. It's a quite simple hack, yet great one and straight up fun game.
Giving us DexNav is already insta 10/10 addition and my Blaziken getting Trop Kick for coverage + boost from Athletic.
your videos feels like they are always in x2
The graphic style kinda remind me also to pokemon coral
I got real excited when i saw that zwiggo had made a vid on seaglass, since i atarted playing it as well (how did i miss this vid fr 11 days??)
I am gonna like my comment so don judge me
The creator made an update to have more accurate NPC and tile sprites. He also made brandon and may the main characters.
Zwiggo to play radical red restricted mode>>>
I like how they move after fainting opponent, like emoting a taunt to salt enemy 😅😅
Play pokemon opalo u will love it , i am sure u wont be dissappointed. Plzzz give it a try.
